Description
Soda-lime Glass Tube is a cost-effectively tube which is made from the most commonly available glass and contains both sodium and calcium. This type of glass is used for windows in buildings, bottles and jars and can also be used cost-effectively to make tubes, rods, plates, spheres and finished glassware components. Although it will not withstand as high a temperature as borosilicate glass, it can still be successfully used for many different scientific and industrial applications.
